#Top5Wednesday55

Top 5 Wednesday was originally created by Lainey from Gingerreadslainey and is now hosted by Sam from Thoughts on Tomes. There is a Goodreads group which lists the topics. I will only be participating in this meme at least once a month, maybe more if it’s a topic that I’m really excited about.

This week’s topic is Hyped 2019 Releases I Don’t Care About.The list is in no specific order.

Yes, I’m fully aware that these are all fantasy and I’m not sorry.

There are so many more books that I could care less about, but I wanted to keep the list to five books.

I’m not really into most hyped books… Usually they’re just not plots that interest me, who knows how it works out that way. I read Slayer though, and it was good! I remember what you said about it being hard to get into for people not already acquainted with the Buffyverse though, so I can understand why you didn’t get the hype.

I went through the Goodreads lists just to see what was coming for new releases and then I read the synopsis’s of those books and decided they weren’t ones that I wanted to read. There are very few new releases that I’m actually excited for at the current moment. My TBR is under 110 if that tells you anything.

Yeah, I hated illuminae so I’m not going to read anything by him again. And then the way he treated people on Twitter for calling out problematic content in one of his books was an issue for me as well.

I don’t know how I always miss stuff like this. Every time when something happens on Twitter and people start talking about how someone was rude or whatever I am like I never see anything rude in my feed.

I like to form my own opinions on the books I read and I totally agree that you shouldn’t read anything that you don’t want to and you shouldn’t support someone who you think is problematic. Like I said though I like to make my own decisions in the books and maybe after I’ve done some research I might not read them but as I stand right now I plan to read his books.
